Tyre pressure is a factor that many road cyclists underestimate. Yet it offers incredible tuning potential and costs virtually nothing. However, many factors influence how much air in the tyre is just the right \u201camount\u201d, e. g., weight, tyre, and rim width as well as terrain. Learn from Alpecin Cycling all you need to know about tyre pressure and get advice on how to determine the ideal air pressure for your needs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The more the better \u2013 for a long time this motto applied with regard to air pressure in road bike tyres. The idea behind it was that narrow, firm and fully inflated tyres were more aerodynamic and had fewer punctures; in a nutshell: that they were faster. A myth that lasted for a long time and has not completely disappeared up to today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEight or even ten bar air pressure in road bike tyres is no longer a thing,\u201d says Felix Sch\u00e4fermeier, product manager at tyre manufacturer Schwalbe. After all, no one still uses narrow 19- or 21-millimetre tyres for road cycling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wider the tyre, the lower the air pressure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to wider road bike tyres of 25 millimetres or more as well as special constructions such as tubeless tyres and wider rims, tyres can now be ridden with air pressures of around 5 bar and below \u2013 at a body weight of 70 to 80 kilograms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is true that a tyre inflated \u201cas firm as a rock\u201d is less prone to pinch punctures. But it does not adapt to the road surface and thus loses the desired contact with the ground. It bounces, so to speak. The wattage applied to the pedal literally fizzles out. This aspect increases the effective rolling resistance \u2013 the rougher the surface, the higher the rolling resistance of a firmly inflated tyre. In addition, the rider feels it in the form of a lack of grip, for example in bends, but also in form of a significantly poorer comfort, or \u201csouplesse\u201d as experts call it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Air pressure \u2013 the ideal balance between comfort and performance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

But the road is no laboratory. Even here in Germany, the asphalt is not as smooth as a sheet of paper or a pane. In other countries \u2013 especially the cycling nations \u2013 it is even rougher. \u201cWhen rider and bike bounce on the asphalt, bluntly speaking, there is no continuous contact with the road surface. That leads to an enormous loss of energy,\u201d says Sch\u00e4fermeier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a lower air pressure, on the other hand, the tyre can deform and \u201cglide\u201d more gently over the rough road surface. And not to forget the gain in comfort due to the lower air pressure. \u201cImpacts are absorbed much better. Less air straightens out the bumps, so to speak,\u201d Sch\u00e4fermeier elaborates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, riding with low air pressure can in fact have one disadvantage \u2013 poorer aerodynamics. But this only holds true for 28-millimetre or even wider tyres on a very narrow rim, when it is squeezed into a so-called light bulb shape. \u201cHowever, the differences only become noticeable at speeds beyond 40 km\/h and are in the lower single-digit wattage range,\u201d says Sch\u00e4fermeier. The aerodynamics of wide tyres can be improved when combining them with wide rims of 21 millimetres and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tyre width, rim surface & Co.: These factors determine the correct air pressure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

How much tyre pressure is ideal depends on many different factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tyre width and type: As a rule of thumb, lower air pressure is needed, the wider the tyre gets. A difference of two millimetres in tyre width can make a difference of 1 bar. \u201cTubeless tyres can generally be ridden with less pressure than clinchers, as the tubeless construction eliminates the risk of pinch punctures or snakebites,\u201d explains Sch\u00e4fermeier. Many tyre manufacturers recommend reducing the air pressure in their tubeless models by 0.5 bar to 1 bar compared to clinchers of the same width.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind that the construction of the tyre may also have an impact on the air pressure. The more stable the carcass construction, for example due to an additional puncture protection layer, the lower the air pressure can be for these rather stiff tyres \u2013 without increasing the risk of punctures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Weight and load distribution: For the system weight \u2013 consisting of rider and bike \u2013 the following applies: The lighter the \u201cpackage\u201d, the lower the pressure. But also load distribution should be adjusted. As a rule, 0.2 to 0.5 bar less on the front tyre. On triathlon and time trial bikes, where a lot of weight bears on the front due to the riding position, this marginally lower air pressure brings comfort gains and reduces the red muscles\u2019 fatigue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Road surface: The rougher and more rugged the road surface, the more sense it makes to lower the air pressure to enhance comfort and grip. The latter minimises energy loss and improves rolling resistance. Air pressure should also be reduced on wet roads \u2013 between 0.5 and 1 bar less may improve grip. The lower air pressure increases the contact area of the tyre, more rubber is in contact with the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rim width & construction: \u201cWheel and tyre should always be considered a system, as they interact in terms of performance,\u201d says Sch\u00e4fermeier. A wider rim (inside diameter) provides better support for the tyre so that it can be ridden at lower pressures \u2013 compared to the same tyre on a smaller rim. \u201cIt does make a big difference how a tyre sits in a rim,\u201d Sch\u00e4fermeier elaborates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A tyre in a hookless rim, e.g., takes up a different, larger volume than in a classic hook rim. This in turn means that with hookless rims \u2013 using the identical tyre \u2013 less air pressure is needed. Hookless rims are usually only compatible with tubeless tyres, regardless of whether they are used with a tube or tubeless. The maximum permissible air pressure according to ISO standard is 5 bar, which to a certain extent requires a wide tyre-rim combination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ideal air pressure: find it via trial and error<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In any case, it is worth experimenting with the air pressure. As already mentioned, air is for free and the gains in performance and comfort are enormous. Whether on wet asphalt during a race or on a multi-day bike packing tour. To tinker with tyre pressure is by no means rocket science but requires just a little bit of trial and error \u2013 and will reward the adventurous with a really great set-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investing a little time to experiment with tyre pressure is therefore definitely worthwhile. By the way, this applies not only when it comes to the road bike, but even more so when it comes to bikes you\u2019ll go offroad with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Useful links on tyre pressure<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For road bikes, tyre manufacturer Schwalbe has drawn up a list for different tyre widths and rider weights. For example, with road bike tyres that are only two millimetres wider, air pressure may be one bar less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With \u201cPressure Prof\u201d, Schwalbe also provides cyclists with a tool to determine the optimal air pressure. So far only for mountain bikes and e-mountain bikes, but the tool will soon be expanded to include road bikes and gravel bikes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
